The 3.5-mile street — which runs from Culver City east through Baldwin Hills, Crenshaw and ends in Mid-City and Jefferson — is not be to confused with Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills. It will be renamed between Jefferson Boulevard and Arlington Avenue.

“We’re thrilled that Angelenos and visitors will forever be reminded of the legacy of President @BarackObama when traveling across L.A.,” Mayor Eric Garcetti tweeted after the vote.

It’s official: our City Council has voted to rename Rodeo Road to Obama Boulevard!

City Council President Herb Wesson proposed the name change last year. His motion mentioned that the area around Rodeo Road is home to “president’s row,” a series of streets named after former presidents which includes Washington Boulevard, Adams Boulevard and Jefferson Boulevard.

As a senator, according to Wesson’s motion, Obama reportedly held his first L.A. presidential campaign rally at Rancho Cienega Park on Rodeo Road.
